    Diane you should be so proud of yourself!!! :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: Congrats!!! Keep up the good work and I wish I could get those inches like you did. Even when I had a trainer for 6 months my hips did not move that much. You doing girl!! By next year for the wedding you are going to be a lean machine :laugh:

    I have a question about the leg press? How much are you pressing? You should be pressing over your body weight? Wow, if that is the case I am way under. But I am not going to push it because of my knees. I was just wondering. Go lady!! :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

    Hi Molly and thank you so much for your encouragement! So the test they have me do calculates how much weight I'd be able to press if I were to only do it one time. Since that is so hard on your body, they don't recommend that so they have me press as much as I can as many times as I can with the goal being between 6 and 10 times. And then based on how much weight they put on the machine and how many times I was able to press it, (they apparently have a formula to figure this out) they can calculate what my max lift would be.

    You are all so sweet!

    My success has 4 components.

    1. Proper Nutrition
    2. Cardiovascular Exercise
    3. Strength Training
    4. Constant Coaching

    That is what the trainer and nutrition coach have taught me. I think they are absolutely right. All of these components are vital for successful weight loss. You guys are my #4. I really do need your encouragement. We all need encouragement. That is why this site is so wonderful. :flowerforyou:
